Activity: Running
Distance: 13.5 miles

Workout:
2 hours easy on the treadmill (~8:41 pace); Varying incline up to 5.5

Notes:
My knee was sore and I didn't feel like I had the energy to complete this one. In fact, I almost bailed 10 minutes in. However, the more I ran the better I felt and actually felt decent afterwards. My knee started to ache later in the day so I will focus the coming week on lightening up and rehabbing it.

The last interval actually felt better than the first. Nevertheless I was spent when this was done. Not for the faint of heart.

Activity: Running
Distance: 12.5 miles

Workout:

2 miles easy; 5 x (5min @6:55 pace, 1 min easy - 1.5% incline); 1 hour easy (rolling hills)

Notes:
Phew. This was a hard workout to geared up for. Just when you complete the interval set and think you are done - WHAM - guess what, one more hour of running. I thought the last hour would me miserable but it actually went by rather quickly due to playing with elevation and watching Kill Bill.
